no infrared is a wave band slightly above red that we cannot see. Its commonly used to transfer data. like in tv remotes. Or pdas and stuff with irda connections.

Ultra violet is a wave band above violite that we cannot see

maybe if i was one of those fish that can see the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum i'd choose infrared...

however, i cannot claim to be such a fish as i am not a fish at all...

therefore my choice is UV and violet... you can get violet LEDs that emit visible violet light only and you can get UV leds that emit invisible UV and also visible violet light...

i am not a fish... thankyou, thankyou very much

Red all the way :P I'm really sick of blue lighting everywhere :D

Red only looks pink if the inside of your case is aluminum. My red leds are nice and red, and since I painted the inside red too the cathodes look red also, even tho they looked kinda pink before :/.

Red I could do in a keyboard ;) but... red reminds me too much of the hdd activity light otherwise lol so.. it'd have to be orange anywhere else I think :)

infrared is below red. red is the lowest color on the visible light spectrum. Ultraviolet is above violet, the highest color on that spectrum. Neither is visible because they are past the limits.

I too like white.
